Fairyhearts: WE MADE IT BACK ALIVE!
Lia: Aren't you supposed to be studying?
Fairyhearts: But I studied all DAY!
Lia: I suppose I can let you off. It is a holiday after all.
Fairyhearts: ARIGATOU!
Lia: Doo itashimashita...
Lucy: Anyway, Fairyhearts doesn't own this story.
Laxus: I'm not sure if I like it yet...
Fairyhearts: Baka... LET'S BEGIN!
Fairy Tail: OI!
I stood on the end of the world...and I let it burn.
Lucy sighed and threw down her pen. Finally, finished. Levy will be happy. She smiled. Trilogies are extremely hard to write.
"Hey Lucy? You done yet?"
"Finished. We can go on a job now," she called back to my partner. He walked in with a square of rice jelly on a stick in his mouth. She stood up from my chair and kissed him gently on the cheek. He pouted and crossed his arms. His pink hair fell across his obsidian eyes and his cheeks were puffed out.
"I don't give out kisses for free," Lucy teased in a sing-song voice. She pushed my blonde hair off her face and looked up into his eyes while a goofy grin overtook his features.
"Well, I do."
He had finished his jelly and kissed her on the lips. Mmm, cinnamon and mango, my favourite.
They had been dating in secret for three months and Natsu still didn't want to announce it to the guild. Lucy didn't either, the thought of what Mirajane would say and do scared her.
"So, what job are we taking?" She asked, wrapping her arms around his neck.
"I don't know. I was waiting for you to finish up before going to the guild to pick one," he answered, removing his hands from around her waist and going to put on his black linen top with gold trim that opened under his belt and continued down below his knees. It only had one sleeve so his red fairy tail mark was on show. He wore white, loose linen pants and black sandals. Lucy wrapped his scarf around his neck and kissed him lightly on the lips.
"Come on, let's go."
They walked out of Lucy's apartment and she locked the door. They walked down the path with Lucy balancing on the edge beside the river. He held her hand to stop her from falling and they eventually reached the guild. They dropped hands and walked into the wooden hall.
"You are so dead, meatball!"
Lucy stared at the man in front of her ...meat...ball?
"Come at me bro!"
"DIE YOU FUCKING STRAWBERRY!"
"BRING IT POPSICLE!"
...oh, that. Lucy shuffled away and let the two frenemies beat each other to a pulp. She spotted a hint of blue in one of the many dark corners in the guild and ran over.
"Levy! ... And Gajeel."
"L-L-Lu-chan!" the little blue haired mage squeaked.
"And I'm out," the black haired mage with WAY too many piercings stood up...and sat down again. "This is my corner, you two leave."
"Piss off, pin cushion."
He growled at Lucy. "Fuck no, Salamader hugger."
"Am I missing something?" Levy asked. Lucy heard her but her focus was on Gajeel.
"I can smell him on you," the iron dragon slayer smirked.
"And if I was a dragon slayer I'd smell you on pixie face."
"Since when do I get called names?"
"Since your boyfriend pissed me off," Lucy answered, smirking.
"HE'S NOT MY B-BOYFRIEND!" Levy squealed.
"If you want to hide your relationship from me then don't go on a date to the library."
Levy blushed bright red and Gajeel cursed under his breath.
"So, how long?" Lucy asked, sitting down beside my fellow bookworm.
"T-two weeks," she replied her face darkening by the second and her bangs covering her eyes.
"Three months," Lucy smirked. Gajeel's jaw dropped and Levy just looked confused.
"Seriously? You and Salamander? Three MONTHS?!" Gajeel exclaimed once he'd regained his composure (but not his dignity!). Levy caught on and squealed, hugging Lucy. She laughed and hugged her back.
They began talking about random crap and time appeared to fly by. Lucy was telling Levy about her book when Gajeel butted into their conversation.
"Hate to burst your bubble, girls, but Edo-chick just walked by and she also smelled like Salamander."
It took Lucy a minute to actually figure out who he was refering to. "Lisanna?!"
"Sounds like you found out."
She turned around to see a blue cat floating in mid air. His sad expression pained her but she was overjoyed. Happy had been avoiding Lucy for months for no apparent reason.
"Natsu made me promise not to tell either of you. I knew he couldn't keep it up for long though."
Carla came over and put a hand on the other exceed's arm. Happy looked like he was about to cry.
"Oh, Happy," Lucy exclaimed. She pulled him into a hug and he began crying on her shoulder. "It's not your fault. You did nothing wrong."
He stopped crying when he got the hiccups and he pulled away from her shoulder. "I-hic-I'm sorry, Lucy. I should have told y-hic-you."
Lucy shook her head. "Natsu's a father figure to you, it makes sense that you would do as he says," she soothed. "I'll be back in a minute."
Lucy got up from where they had been sitting, hidden in shadows, and walked into the light. She walked over to Lisanna. She hadn't really talked with the silver haired Strauss much, just the odd 'Hello, how are you?' so she was a bit shocked when Lucy asked for a word.
Lucy brought her through the maze of hallways that creates the storage space until she knew we were away from eavesdroppers. It also gave her plenty of time to come up with a strategy.
"Lisanna, I wanted to ask you about...your relationship with Natsu," Lucy stated in a serious tone. She felt bad about what she was about to do. Lisanna and Lucy were in this together and they had to stick together but Lucy was about to betray her trust. By lying.
"I-I don't know what you're t-talking about," she replied, looking away.
"Natsu has been acting strange lately so I assumed he had a girl in his life and I also assumed it was you. Was I right?" Lucy asked, forcing her face to light up and look hopeful. The take over mage giggled at her antics and nodded.
"W-we've been going out for three months. But don't tell anyone, Natsu doesn't want to yet," she said, she looked so happy and Lucy couldn't take that away from her.
"I-I hope you guys are very happy. That's all I wanted to say."
Lisanna smiled sweetly and Lucy left. She couldn't handle it. She ran upstairs to the master's office.
"Lucy? What brings you here?" the old man asked. Tears were pouring out of her eyes and she had a hand clamped over her mouth. She collapsed into a ball and bawled her eyes out.
"Hey, Gramps. Is everythi-"
Lucy's head snapped up when that person walked through the door. She didn't want to see him or his bubblegum hair.
"Get out," she whispered.
"But, why?"
"Go away! Don't talk to me! How could you do that to me?" She screamed. Luckily Master had closed the door and placed a sound nullifying ruin on the room.
"Do what? I don't know what you're talking about!" he reached a tanned hand out to her and she shrunk away.
"Don't touch me! Don't ever touch me again!" she yelled, more tears pouring from her chocolate eyes.
"I-I don't understand."
"I'm breaking up with you," Lucy stated bluntly.
"But...I thought you loved me," he announced, confused. She laughed coldly.
"Funny, so did I."
Natsu stared at her for a minute.
"What do you mean?"
"I thought you loved me too! But obviously not if you're dating Lisanna behind my back!" Lucy screamed. Natsu was still confused. He's so clueless! Doesn't understand that cheating is wrong?!
"Natsu, can you leave please? Lucy and I need to talk," Gramps replied. She turned to him and gave him a grateful half-smile. Natsu was about to protest but thought better of it. He left the room.
"We'll continue this later," he said.
"No, we won't," Lucy answered as he closed the door behind him. She sat down in front of Master's desk with a cold look in my eyes.
"Thank you."
"For what, child?"
"For stopping me before I tried to kill him. I-I lose control when I'm angry. My magic does it's own thing. My spirits try to protect me from whatever made me angry even if it means killing," she explained. Master's eyes widened and he took a step back. Most people believe her magic isn't extremely strong and Lucy let them believe that but, at her full power, she could rival even Erza.
"Sounds like you need to get this under control before you face Natsu again," Master announced calmly. Lucy nodded. "How about you take some time off to train?"
"What are you saying?" she asked, tears began to fill her eyes. Am I being kicked out?
"I'm not kicking you out," Master said hurriedly. "I'm just trying to protect you. I know you will regret it later if you hurt Natsu now."
Lucy nodded, he was right. She would regret it. But what was she supposed to do? "Master? Can I go back to Tenrou Island?"
Master nodded."I was hoping you'd say that. Tenrou Island is your best bet at the moment."
"Why?" She asked, confused.
"Laxus and Mavis are both on that island at the present. Mavis can train you mentally and magically, your spirits can help, and Laxus physically. You will come back a mage capable of the S class trials you are entering."
Lucy gasped. Me? S class? "Have you lost your mind?!" she shouted at Makarov.
"No, more like I've found it."
Lucy smiled gently at him and stood up. "Thank you, Master. I-I won't let you down."
"I know you won't. Now, go. The S class trials will be taking place in six months and I want you prepped at go time with all the celestial magic available in your hands."
"Goodbye, Master." Lucy left the office and walked down the stairs. She ignored the stares of people who didn't understand her situation and flashed a quick glare at Natsu. As soon as she was outside the guild, she began running. She heard a shout behind her, it wasn't Natsu.
"Lu-chan! Wait up!"
Lucy turned to see Levy running up behind her. She stopped and put her hands on her knees, panting for breath.
"I...want to...help...you...pack."
Lucy was confused. How did she know?
"I did a quick spell that over-righted Master's ruins just enough for Gajeel to hear what was being said."
Lucy didn't answer Levy but just kept walking, everyone seems to be reading her mind today. Everyone except him.
They packed together most of her clothes. Lucy left behind anything that reminded her of him. Told Levy to burn it. Levy sniffled and looked up at her best friend with sad eyes.
"Are you really leaving?"
Lucy nodded and hugged her.
"I have one final request, Levy. Can you make sure Natsu doesn't burn down my apartment or even spend too much time here. He's lost me but he still has Lisanna and he needs to take care of her."
She sniffled and wiped away her tears.
"I-I'll try."
"Thanks. Come on, I need help getting all this downstairs."
They carried the bags outside Lucy's front door and she slipped another envelope that contained 420,000 jewels in it through the letter box for her landlady.
"You have everything?" Levy asked. Lucy nodded and piled the bags together beside her.
"Thanks Levy-chan," she said, giving her one last hug. "I expect weekly letters, got that?"
She took a deep breath and stood with her arms up to the sky.
"Unlock the heavens with myself as the key
My magic becomes yours, oh Star Magesty
Open the gate of travelling light
Allow me to past through the world of the stars
Celestial Portal: Tenrou Island!"
A gold magic circle appeared around her waist and under her bags and, in a flash of light, they had passed through the spirit world.
Lucy landed on an island she had visited many years ago and sighed. She was ready for training.
"Blondie?"
She turned around and smiled at the master's grandson.
"Nice to see you again, Laxus."
Fairyhearts: Well, yeeeaaaah.
AD: I thought you liked NaLu?
Fairyhearts: Can't I like NaLu and LaLu?
Lia: Of course you can.
Laxus: It's weird...
Natsu: I don't get it.
Lucy/Lisanna: That's because you're an idiot. ^_^
Mira: Are are.
Fairyhearts: WELL then. I think we'll end it there for today.
AD: WAIT! You forgot the Fairy Tail Fact!
Fairyhearts: OH YEAH! I'm doing this for this story and this story ONLY!
Fairy Tail Fact: Did you know...
Some God Slayer spells are named after gods from different mythologies, each one akin to their element:
Flame God's Kagutsuchi is named after the Japanese god of fire.
Sky God's Boreas is named after the Greek god of the northern winds.
Fairyhearts: Coolio.
Lia: So...please review!
Fairyhearts: And, if you're interested, please go to Black Talia Rose's account.
Lia: That's me. (I am also El but I changed the name to Lia)
Fairyhearts: Sayonara!
Fairy Tail: Until next time!
